An increasing trend among young rural women is the tendency to escape the hardship associated with farm labour through marriages, often very short-lived, with civil servants and others who have other means of income, such as teachers, or with those perceived to have a more secure future, such as male students at the college level; in many cases, this has generated a serious problem among these girls.
Entre las mujeres rurales jóvenes crece la tendencia a escapar de las penurias asociadas al trabajo agrícola recurriendo al matrimonio, a menudo de efímera duración, con funcionarios públicos y otras personas que disponen de más recursos económicos, como los maestros, o que aparentemente tienen un futuro más seguro, como los varones que cursan estudios superiores; en muchos casos, esto ha generado graves problemas entre esas muchachas.
